No Headset available
- Pros: I bought this phone on sale elsewhere. I had very little problems connecting to my brother's 128 bit WEP encrypted network, after I put in the pass key. But ease of connection is the only pro I can say for this phone. And the Skype service is really irrelevant to the Pros and Cons of the phone itself.
- Cons: Netgear does not make a headset for this phone. And I have tried different 2.5" headsets of different pin arrangements in an attempt to find a compatible model. No luck. The phone burns my ear as I talk. A headset is needed. Phone also eats batteries. Talk time is less than 1.5 hours. Standby time is less than 3.5 to 4 hours. Also, phone does not list networks and ask which one to connect to. It automatically connects to my neighbor's network instead of mine.
- Other Thoughts: The phone is pretty. But I had rather have an ugly phone that did not burn my ear while talking. To me it is bewildering that Netgear sold this phone without providing a headset, or without at least giving a headset pin wiring diagram so that I could make my own.
Very Good for 1st generation product
- Pros: Free phone call overseas! Sound quality to Japan was very good.
- Cons: Battery gets hot while in use and doesn't last as long as it use to. Wife tried to roam around outside and the sound quality suffered a little.
- Other Thoughts: Where can I get a replacement battery?
poor design
- Pros: great skype phone. works anywhere there is access point or hot spot.
- Cons: every time the batteries go dead, the phone must be setup again. There is what looks like battery charge contacts on side of phone, but there is no cradle. phone is always being left unplugged till battery drains.
- Other Thoughts: probably wouldn't buy again.
